Launch HN: Martin (YC S23) – Using LLMs to Make a Better Siri 20 by darweenist | 14 comments on Hacker News. Hey HN! Dawson here from Martin ( https://ift.tt/ZAI6OEf ). Martin is a better Siri with an LLM brain and deeper integrations with everyday apps. See our demo here ( https://youtu.be/jiJdfrWurvk ). You can talk to Martin through voice in our iOS app. You can also text it via SMS, WhatsApp, or email.

SSOReady is an open-source (MIT) service that lets you implement SAML single sign-on without ever touching SAML yourself. You just need to implement two API endpoints: one to initiate SAML logins and another to receive incoming SAML messages. And then you're pretty much done. Here's me setting up SAML single sign-on in under a minute: ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_HVtFkW8xCI ). You can use our service with whatever tech stack or programming language you prefer. Earlier in my career, I worked on SAML authentication at Segment. I've been pretty obsessed with SAML since then. In the depths of the COVID pandemic, I even wrote an implementation of SAML in Go to entertain myself ( https://ift.tt/IYCK8xA ). Over the years, I've gotten really itchy to build better SAML tooling. There...
